My mate mentioned something about f8?

 

[Christurbo]

Anyone ? Wanna try again tonight

 

[Leprechaun312]

by f8 he probably means the boot menu so you can choose your boot device

 

[Christurbo]

Recon this is worth a try tonight ?
I did try switching between the graphics card and the integrated card on the motherboard , but didn't work :/

so with either the integrated graphics and the 9800gt it just stops on booting at the motherbard splash screen, the green screen when you turn it on

 

[Christurbo]

With the hdmi in "integrated " if I turn computer off them turn it On it just goes straight to windows start up
With it set on the graphics card it shows the green screen

Then if I don't press anything it will go onto the start up of windows

Think it might have Sumet to do with my tv?

 

[Christurbo]

With the tv set to "pc" anologe lead "which is the actually graphics card(9800)
Turn it on it does this straight away

Then this

Now if I press del it does this

 

[Leprechaun312]

that's wierd so your saying now that you can't get into the bios somethings up when you turn it on with the integrated graphics does it take a while before the screen shows anything? do you have a pc monitor you could use

 

[Christurbo]

It does take a while to show up on the hdmi but of I turn the tv to pc then u can still see the green asus on there but then it goes off then if I switch back to hdmi it shows the windows load up , I'll borrow the monitor from the pc room upstairs sure my brother won't mind haha I think it is to do with the tv tho , it's only 3months old the tv I'll give it a try when I get home tonight thanks again

Shall I overclock through the CPU reference clock mhz or just use the auto overclock which is best ?

I'd not recommend pushing a manual overclock without that replacement PSU for now, it would be pointless until you have the other components anyway.

In the mean time have a read up on the overclocking guides floating around here for a good understanding on what you can achieve. Overclocking is far from a basic skill and there are multiple things to consider before attempting yourself.

 

[Christurbo]

No worrys bit weird but like learning things , mechanic by trade so no auto electrics but these computers are far more involved

Not as standard it doesn't.
It gives you a choice, but you pay more for it.

 

[Christurbo]

In specification it says
- Graphics Card: Choice of DX11 Compatible Graphics Cards ***OcUK Recommends a minimum of either an AMD 7850 or a Nvidia 660 to play Battlefield optimally at HD resolutions***
